Pet stairs? Does anyone have these pet stairs? http://catsplay.com/as_narrow.php3 I really need to order a couple of sets for our couch and our 27" bed, but I have seen so many kinds. What kind does everone use? What do you like the best? Should I get the foam ones, plastic, wood, what? I am so confused on this, there are too many options. These on this site come in lots of different sizes, what size step depth would be best for a yorkie you think? Any advice or pictures of what everyone here uses would sure be appreciated. Help!! |
Those do look nice. I was concerned with the steps for new puppies so DH built me some ramps and carpeted them. He put a hinge between a long board and a small board and then added the carpet. That way the smaller board can be placed up on whatever they want to climb to and the longer one can be slanted for them to easily walk up. Ben runs up and down it like crazy. |
I bought two sets of the faux shearling covered steps on e-bay for a good price and use those for the couches. I also have a wooden one for my bed. The wooden one is really pretty but my ankles prefer the foam!!! I keep bumping into the wooden one and getting bruises. :D my dogs use the steps almost all the time but sometimes do the superman jump... omega |

I have the 3 step wooden ones with the fleece cover and my late 6lb. Yorkie used them easily. I know what you mean about too many choices! |
Those steps look nice but they look a bit steep to me. I have had enough difficulty getting Gracie to use the standard kind. I bought the plastic pet steps at PetCo for use with my sofa. They are fairly flimsy. What I really like are the foam ones that I ordered for use with my tall bed. Shipping was fast and they look great, and they are not heavy like wood. http://www.geocities.com/mcpetsteps/ |

I was the same as you and couldn't decide on the steps until I saw the one on PetEdge. It folds flat and has nice deep steps that my Jazzie feels very comfortable using. It can even be converted to a ramp! It's made of wood and super sturdy! Take a look: http://www.petedge.com/shopping/prod...ProductID=5530 |

I bought some foam ones on eBay and after a little coaching, Jaxon is using them fairly regularly. He's good on going up, but still jumps off the bed sometimes. The ones we have are super light but wish they were a bit higher. I found them less expensive than some other options. I was nervous about paying too much without knowing if he'd actually use them. |

Thanks, I just went on to look and I love all the different color choices. Let me know what you think after they are delivered. Michele & Bailey:aimeeyork |
We got our stairs, 2 different sets. I love them, they are so cute. So far Lily will go up them if I show them to her, but she hasn't figured out how to go to them herself and use them. My chi likes them, especially the ones at my bed, she has never been able to jump on my bed. They are well made, and I love the prints I ordered(Tiger and leopard). I'll try to post pics later today. |
I am good with wood, and made some myself. I had to put food on each step a few times to teach them how to use them, and what they are for, lol. I put that last peice of food on my bed. I also at first put my bathroom rug on them to kinda pad them. That worked until I found Venus peeing on it, lol. Her pee pad is almost at the bottom of the steps. Now, bathroom rug is gone, and they both use the steps to get on and off the bed. |
2 Attachment(s) I got these at Collections etc. They were only around 15 dollars, and they work great. They fold up too.;) That is our Jack Russel looking at them, but just Sawyer uses them, and he is only 3 pounds:animal36 :animal36 |

I also have a larger set for our bed (they're about 27" tall) that she can use. It takes a bit of effort to get up those but she can do it! |
We bought the faux shearling covered stairs at Wal-Mart and our smallest Yorkie loves them. Without them she would not be able to get on our bed. Our bigger girl (3 1/2 lbs.) uses the stairs some. I definitely recommend them. |

Sorry! I haven't been on YT in a little while and just saw this. I have the 3 step since I have a very high bed. I can't be happier with the steps from PetEdge! |
Thank you, I am trying to decide between these and some on ebay that I like. Happy Holidays |
I just bought a 4 step set at Petsmart for $40 and its very sturdy. I have looked for awhile and really wanted a strong set so m Gracie wouldnt get hurt..shes 9 lbs. |
